Rush Limbaugh: Am I a Phony Soldier?

According to Rush Limbaugh, Jon Soltz, Iraq war veteran and chairman of VoteVets.org, is a "phony soldier." Today, Media Matters reports that Rush Limbaugh said that those troops who come home and want to get America out of the middle of the religious civil war in Iraq are "phony soldiers."

The question is, would Rush make these outrageous and offensive comments to Jon's face?

Dear Rush,

(Edit Letter Below)

Polls have shown that the majority of troops on the ground in Iraq, and those who have returned, do not back the President's failed policy.

Do you believe, then, that the majority of the US Armed Forces are "phony?"

Major Generals John Batiste and Paul Eaton left the military and have spoken out against the Bush Administration's failed policies. These are former commanders in Iraq, and they have challenged the Administration for its stubborn refusal to listen to those commanders on the ground who have sent up warning after warning.

Do you believe that highly decorated Major Generals are "phony soldiers?"

Finally, recall the members of the 82nd Airborne in Iraq who wrote a New York Times op-ed, urging for a change in course in Iraq, and suggesting it was time to figure out the exit strategy. Two of them just died.

Do you believe these young troops are "phony soldiers?"

Will you invite Jon Soltz onto your show and say all of this again, right to the face of someone who served in Iraq?

Sincerely,
[Your name]
